I dont know if its a software database corruption on my system or a genuine error. anyway easiest way to remove rpms once you have found them is something like this probably. Maybe there is another gui app that can do it as well. $ rpm -qa | grep gcc gcc-2.96-0.62mdk gcc-cpp-2.96-0.62mdk gcc-c++-2.96-0.62mdk gcc3.0-cpp-3.0.1-1mdk -qa is qerry all then just rpm -e gcc-2.96-0.62mdk etc
